Prime Minister Imran Khan on Friday granted approval for the launch of a new private airline from Sialkot International Airport.

Special Assistant to the Prime Minister on Youth Affairs Usman Dar, AirSial Chairman Fazal Jillani and other members of the local business community met with the prime minister and Minister for Privatisation and Aviation Muhammad Mian Soomro in Sialkot, Dar told DawnNewsTV.

The airline is to be launched through cooperation with local traders and businessmen. The chairman of AirSial said the airline would become operational within the next year.

The businessmen thanked the premier for the government's assistance in the launch of the airline.

The prime minister remarked that Sialkot is fast becoming a major hub for investment and that the government would provide additional facilities to the area.

"The airline's launch will create jobs and stimulate business activity in the region," the premier said.

The business community in Sialkot in 2009, after establishing the international airport in the export hub on a self-help basis, had decided to launch the airline to provide a cheaper travelling facility to the region's traders along domestic and international routes.

The airline was to be established under the joint supervision of the Sialkot Chamber of Commerce and Industry (SCCI) and Sialkot International Airport.

The Sialkot business community has also planned to set up a food and vegetable processing/packing centre close to the airport to boost exports.

Exporters in Sialkot, in addition to construction of the airport, have also completed the construction of a dry port, export processing zone, small industrial estates and inter-city roads on a self-help basis under the city development package.

Pakistani airlines serve prison food hope this airline changes that trend
Absolutely incorrect. Dont give me those incident of some bug in the food, that was an accident, could happen to anyone. But as far as taste goes, they are one of the better ones. At least to me!!

P.S. i hate airline food anyway so may be PIA's taste more like Pakistani so i relatively prefer it.

Always!
Gareeb admi hoon bahi.

But again, i think i know what the difference of opinion is all about:

  • I dont like airline food so PIA's taste closer to home, may be thats why
  • I was talking international travel while you i guess was talking about food on domestic flights?

But trust me, airline food SUCKS!! BIG TIME!

Great step! I am seriously impressed by karbobari tabqa of Sialkot, had kept an eye on this venture for some time. Keep it up guys. If they can sustain a quality service, they can give enough pressure to other airlines in Pakistan.

What will be the fleet size why these guys dont invest in pia and buy new aircrafts for profitable routes via sialkot

I am not sure if there is any such policy/provision for others to invest in PIA (or similar national ventures), and why would any sane person do that? PIA is a sinkhole.

Pia staff is rude and they use cutlery tht feels cheap but food taste wise.. Itsby far one of the better ones.
Our desi taste buds cant b catered by qatar, cathay, Singapore or emirates
